Are you for ‘wheel’?
1 min read

A LOCAL couple got a “wheelie” big surprise last week when the contents of a package weren’t quite what they were expecting. 
Eloise Mayers and her partner Jack Ryan received the large box on Friday, believing it contained their new double pram. But when Jack opened the box, instead of the pram frame, the box contained 35 pram wheels. 
“We were going to put it together Friday night so we could go for a walk on Saturday morning - but that didn’t happen,” Eloise laughed. 
“We just lost it laughing. 
“We thought ‘surely not’, but Jack kept unpacking the box and it was all wheels.” 
Eloise said she contacted the supplier and a replacement was shipped on Monday - as well as a return trip for the box of wheels.  
“Stuff like this happens,” she said. 
“You’ve just got to laugh.” 
In the meantime, Eloise said she will stick to walking two-year-old Reggie in the single pram, with three-week-old Darla in the carrier. 
“We’re okay with that,” she said. 
“Darla is only three weeks old, so we’re just happy hibernating at this stage.”
